Where are my wallpaper pictures??

I'm trying to find the folder on my hardrive(s) that contains my wallpapers for my desktop.  These are not the pictures that Apple provides but pictures I've placed into the folder "wallpaper" that I'm having prefrences locate and use.  I can't find it like I've been able to in the past.  Does anyone know of any tricks or solution for helping me find this folder??  I'm wondering if there isn't a way to open up prefrences/desktop and screensaver to help me locate which folder or drive in which Apple is taking them from (since I can't seem to remember)

Yup.  That worked!  I wish I didn't have to use a third-party app to get the task done but at least it worked...
Glad to hear it. The main reason I suggested EasyFind is that unless you need to search on the content of files, it can serve as pretty effective replacement for Spotlight, which seems to frequently get bogged down in indexing. EasyFind doesn't index and it can search media that you wouldn't want Spotlight to normally index.
You wouldn't want to turn Spotlight off completely though (by putting your boot drive in Privacy) because it does do some indexing even if nothing is selected in Search Results, and appears to interact with the App Store for purchases.

  • Hi there, I pay for extra iCloud space online. However I cannot seem to find any of my photos or account? As my iPod/iPhone only hold 1000 pictures, where are the previous pictures? And how can I access them?

    You cannot use iCloud Storage to suppliment your iPad. They are mainly used to backup iPad.

  • Where are the actual picture FILES?

    I have a 3rd party photo editor/printing utility that I would like to try, but when trying to "select" a photo by drilling to the file path, the photos and/or iPhoto library are no where to be found, only pics that are in the MY PICTURES folder - is there any way to select a picture that is in the iPhoto library??

  • Help- where are my iCloud pictures?

    hi I'm about to cry. I had moved over 3000 pictures to my iCloud abd then deleted them off my phone to free up memory. Now as I look at my storage it says only 600 pictures are in my cloud. I fear that this is because it's in backup mode. How do I see/find these pictures? I can't even figure out where to view them.
    I will be so devastated if I've lost this past year of life. Thank you

    You can't see your photos in icloud.com.

  • Where are my download pictures?

    If you save photos from an email they are saved to the camera roll album in the Photos app.

  • Where are my old pictures on iphoto?

    I frequently import my pictures to iphoto as backup, but today when i tried to look at my pictures from few months ago i cannot seem to find them on iphoto, i can only see the most recent imports, just a month worth of photos.

    Sorry - but we have no idea what you have, what you are doing or what has changes on your system - we only know what you tell us so to get assisstance you need to give details - not just a very abstract prpoblem with no context
    the basic answer is that when you launch iPhoto it opens the default iPhoto library and displays all photos in it - if something different is happening then details are needed to be able to help

  • Where are my Photostream pictures?

    Hi,
    I use an iPhone and a Mac. I have enabled Photostream on both.
    I do not use iPhoto on my Mac. I don't want to use iPhoto. I am a Photoshop user and I prefer to manage my files at the file system level.
    When do the photos from my iPhone get to my Mac? Does this work even if I never run iPhoto? If so, where do the photos end up?
    I have no interest in iPhoto. I just want the pictures I take on my phone to get into my computer on a regular, and reliable basis.
    Thanks.

    I believe on a Mac to use photo stream you either have to import them to iPhoto or Aperture. If you don't want to use iPhoto, you could just enable photo stream in iPhoto, then add your photo stream photos to Finder for easy access as described here: http://osxdaily.com/2012/05/18/access-ios-photo-stream-from-mac-os-x-finder/.  This will allow you to copy them all to another location of your choice for your Photoshop work without ever actually using iPhoto to interact with the photos.

  • Where are titles of pictures stored?

    Using iPhoto 5.04 I have made an album of pictures taken over several years. Is there an "easy" way to get a list of the names of the pictures in that album-maybe using Grab or a screenshot?
    Thanks for any help.

    User folder/Movies? See if you can find the files using this program. If you go Finder/View/Show Path Bar, it will show you where it is located.

  • Where are link icon pictures located? I'd like to back them up.

    I bookmarked a lot of sites in my favorites folder. Each of the links in there has a little picture given to it by that website.
    Whenever I uninstall Firefox and then later install a new version, all those bookmarked links lose the icons. The only way is to go to each site to recreate them but it's very time consuming.
    Is there a way to make a backup of this?
    I'm pretty sure it's not the file prefs.js because I tried it before and it didn't restore the link icons.

  • My iphone 4G has 1165 photos and NONE of them can be seen in the DCIM. None of my videos either. The folder is empty. Where the heck are all my pictures?

    With my old 3GS I could connect the phone and navigate to a folder that contained all my pictures and copy them off or view them. Now with my iphone 4G, I connect the phone, navigate to the DCIM folder and it's empty! WTH? Where are all my pictures? I hate having to use itunes because it's performamce is beyond terrible. It takes several minutes to even start and when I click on anything in itunes and I have to wait 20 seconds or more before it responds, then I can click on the next thing wait 20 seconds or more, and so on. Every other application I have is ripping fast. It's horrible. Is apple deliberately making this a giant pain!? Where are all my pictures and video?

    The DCIM folder is for your Camera Roll.  The pics synced from iTunes will not show up there, only pics taken with the iPhone.

  • Where are my files in finder?

    Where are all my pictures in iPhoto's files located in Finder?

    Your iPhoto image files are stored in your iPhoto libary, a package, that is managed by iPhoto and by default stored in your Pictures folder.
    To see the image files in the Finder, select a photo in iPhoto and use the command "File > Reveal in Finder".  But remember, that you must not modify or move the photos using the Finder in any way, once they have been imported to iPhoto. Otherwise you will corrupt the library.
